Really well done. Everything Syndrome said was very in-character. Bob was much more helpful and understanding than he appeared in the film and I enjoyed seeing that side of him, that fatherly side. Syndrome's thoughts make sense and yet they are erratic and that's perfect. I especially liked "What would Mirage say about this?" - "Shut up"- "She probably wouldn't say that." It was a light and lovely moment in an otherwise tense story that was executed well, and the story pressed on without getting side-tracked from that change of tone.

*first comment dance* This is very, very good. An interesting premise, and you make some very good points! You're right - if it wasn't for Syndrome, the Incredibles would never have become super-heros again. Syndrome rocks. _ Looking forward to the next installment!
